Obfuscation (software) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigationJump to search For the term as used in natural language, see obfuscation. In software development, obfuscation is the deliberate act of creating source or machine code that is difficult for humans to understand. Like obfuscation in natural language, it may use needlessly roundabout expressions to compose statements. Programmers may deliberately obfuscate code to conceal its purpose (security through obscurity) or its logic or implicit values embedded in it, primarily, in order to prevent tampering, deter reverse engineering, or even to create a puzzle or recreational challenge for someone reading the source code. This can be done manually or by using an automated tool, the latter being the preferred technique in industry.[1] Contents 1 Overview 2 Recreational obfuscation 2.1 Examples 3 Advantages of obfuscation 3.1 Faster loading time 3.2 Reduced memory usage 3.3 Protection for trade secrets 3.4 Preventio
